Part II

Michelle and Andrewgrew up and accepted the fact that their were, in a sense, different from other people. Tobe and Krystal Maguire were quiet, sad, and secretive. They trusted a very few people. Michelle was the first to realize that something must have happened to make them act this way. One day Michelle and Andrew asked Krystal if they could travel as students mastering in art. When Krystal okayed it, they were so happy. Immediately, they booked two tickets for a flight to the U.S.

Before the left, Krystal told them never to reveal where they lived or any other information about them. Confused but obedient, they obeyed.

While they were there, they met a girl named Katrina Syear. They did not realize that Katrina was actually Krystal's youngest sister. Actually, Krystal did not even know about Katrina. They soon became the best of friends. When they were asked where they were from. They always replied, "I do not know." Katrina, Michelle, and Andrew became so close that Katrina invited them to house her house for a sleepover.

When Katrina introduced them to her parents, they were amazed. They told Katrina, Michelle, and Andrew that their oldest daughter, Krystal's, old boyfriend had the same last name of Maquire. This news excited Michelle and Andrew. They did not dare to write to them, in case it revealed where they lived. So, they contented themselves with writing letters to no one. They would give the letters to their parents when they returned home.

Until then, Michelle and Andrew had been obedient and secretive. They soon came to realize that secretive could be interpreted as small and weak. They proved everyone wrong as they excelled in academics and in sports. People soon learned that secretive could also mean that they wanted privacy.

Back at home, trouble was rising. Rumors were flying everywhere. One rumor was that Michael Uber had returned to the country. One said that he was searching for his friend Sam. Another stated that Michael had come to look for his "wife." One of the most horrifying was that Michael had returned to get revenge on the man who had "stolen" his "wife." Tobe and Krystal immediately knew that the time had come. They would have to flee for their lives. They went to the place they had been preparing in secret for such an emergency. It was stocked with enough food to last two people six months. They left their house in the dead of night. No one knew where they had went.

One of their closest friends wrote to Michelle and Andrew. The letter said that they needed to return home immediately!

Their parents had mysteriously vanished over night. When Michelle and Andrew returned home, they went to a secret place that had been hidden. In the compartment was a note. It told Michelle and Andrew not to worry. They were in hiding and would come out once they were sure that the criminal Michael Uber had left. They told Michelle and Andrew that Michael was after them. They were sorry that they could not tell them where they were hiding, in case someone else found the letter. They told Michelle and Andrew that if they found her parents, to tell them that she was all right.

Michelle and Andrew decided to return to school and sort out the problem there. When they returned to the U.S. They asked Katrina if they could stay with her and her parents for a while. During their stay, Michelle told Frank, Claire, Christine, and Katrina about their childhood and their parents. Christine jumped up and shouted. She explained that when Katrina was two years old, she had felt Krystal in the U.S.

After that explanation, Michelle and Andrew were immediately considered family.

Frank and Claire were so happy that they could see their daughter's two children. For one year, Michelle and Andrew heard no news from their friend in Lidia. On New Years Eve an important letter came. Tobe had written that they were leaving for the U.S. to pick them up. They were so happy. They wrote back about everything. When Tobe and Krystal stepped out of the plane, they were greeted with screams of delight. Looking around, they saw Michelle, Andrew, her parents, her sister Christine, and someone else that they did not recognize. After a quick introduction, they learned that Katrina was Krystal's youngest sister. Krystal was so happy to be reunited.

Back at the house, Krystal told her family what had happened and why they returned to the U.S. Tobe said that their friend, Gabriel, had told them that Michael Uber was asking questions about Krystal. He had found out from Sam that he had sold Krystal to a man called Calvin Carvo, Tobe's alias. Michael was really mad because Sam was not supposed to sell Krystal to anyone. Anyway, Gabriel told Tobe that Michael was getting closer to their hiding place. Gabriel was able to smuggle them out of their hiding place and got them on board of a plane bound for the U.S. Gabriel told them that he would keep them posted on what was going on.
